Artist: Simon & Garfunkel - (Audio CD) - 1999 ... more
I was impressed how good Simon and Garfunkel still sound and how their songs are not outdated. A great CD of two great singers. Highly recommend. read full review | report as inappropriate
I give this 1 star, and I have no doubt that such a rating will PO some Simon and Garfunkel fans. But just listen to my reasoning, give me a fair chance. You won't be sorry.
"I Am a Rock" is a good song, about loneliness and isolation. I listen... read full review | report as inappropriate
I know that relative to the other Greatest Hits album, the sound quality here is better but it's still very poor compared to what other remastered albums out there sound like. To be fair to the record company, nowhere on the cd does it say... read full review | report as inappropriate
Artist: The Mamas & the Papas - (Audio CD) - 1998 ... more
This album had all of the songs I was looking for and some that I never heard of before. Well worth the price anyway. read full review | report as inappropriate
I've listened to this two or three times since purchasing it and never in one sitting. A little bit if this band goes a long way. I've inserted four songs into my digital collection and that seems about right. read full review | report as inappropriate
If you were born or otherwise associated with the 60s and like the west coast sound, you need this in the CD cabinet. But it aint that flash... read full review | report as inappropriate
Artist: Simon & Garfunkel - (Audio CD) - 1990 ... more
We bought this album last century and it is still in a big box of 60's and 70's vinyl LP's somewhere in the house. Having just travelled the length of the New Jersey Turnpike I had to have this as a souvenir. I had forgotten just how brilliant... read full review | report as inappropriate
At 14 tracks and just over 44 minutes, this CD is a little short for an S&G compilation. Nevertheless, it could've been a cute little collection, encompassing, as the title suggests, their greatest commercial hits. It falls short of even this... read full review | report as inappropriate
This is really a fine album, and I think the alternate versions of some of the tracks add to the value of the collection. There are also some tracks where crowd noise intrudes into the start of some studio tracks. But really, this cd needs to be... read full review | report as inappropriate
Artist: The Velvet Underground, Nico - (Audio CD) - 1996 ... more
This album narrowly edge Loaded as VU's finest album? Why? Nico. Her haunting vocal are so different from Reed's but they compliment each other so well. The songs are experimental enough that it's interesting but not too experimental that it's... read full review | report as inappropriate
The cd contains the a remastered edition of the original album. I don't know what the engineers had in mind, but the remastered edition makes my ears bleed. The sound volume has been boosted to a way too high volume and results in completely... read full review | report as inappropriate
To this reviewer both those who love this record and those who hate it are both correct. The Velvet Underground & Nico represents both the best and the worst of popular music. There are flashes of brilliance as in "Venus in Furs," highly... read full review | report as inappropriate
Artist: The Lovin' Spoonful - (Audio CD) - 2000 ... more
Lovin' Spoonful deserves a full Box set of all recorded LPs. Any single CD complilation skips favorites and shakes out hits like a turned-over salt/pepper combo on a buffet platter. John Sebastian wrote classic songs, was as... read full review | report as inappropriate
Do not buy this disk. It is NOT a CD, it does not meet the standards for audio CDs and th CD icon is notably absent on the cover. The DRM used causes skipping making the music unlistenable. Amazon should pull this disk from its... read full review | report as inappropriate
This collection was ok, but it seemed they were just trying to fill a cd. I would not say that it was a "greatest hits". read full review | report as inappropriate
Artist: Tracy Chapman - (Audio CD) - 1995 ... more
Given that there are usually only 1-2 good tracks on an album anymore, this album has five excellent, high quality songs and the others are not even that annoying like you see a lot of times. Heaven's Here on Earth, The Rape of the World, Tell it... read full review | report as inappropriate
Just as in my title, Tracy's songs repeat the same word or phrase over and over again, ad infinitum. After two or three songs like this, the album becomes incredibly boring. If she avoided this technique, her songs would be fine. I bought the... read full review | report as inappropriate
Artists are certainly free to share their political beliefs in their songs, but the ugly truth is that it usually comes off "preachy" and irritates their fans who don't already agree with them. UNLESS...they do it via "story songs" that quietly... read full review | report as inappropriate
Artist: Joni Mitchell - (Audio CD) - 1996 ... more
The 1960s had their share of sad and wistful hits, and Joni Mitchell was behind more than a few. "Both Sides Now" and "The Circle Game" were coffehouse favorites well into the 70s, when folk rock was fading and mindless disco was taking over the... read full review | report as inappropriate
I really only enjoyed 3 songs on this CD. Maybe Joni was before my time. I really thought I knew more stuff, but I think a true Joni Mitchell fan might enjoy this. I did not. read full review | report as inappropriate
The cd is fine, my daughter enjoyed it. However amazon could not meet the delivery they had commited to doing, so it got here much later. This caused me to cancel another order I had made at the same time. If I ever order any more items from... read full review | report as inappropriate

For a contemporary comparison try Nick Worrall's debut album, it has been compared to CSN&Y and is FREE to download. read full review | report as inappropriate
This is one of my favorite albums, but the sound quality of this CD issue is atrocious. The high end is chalk-board harsh. This wonderful inspired album needs wonderful inspired remastering -please! read full review | report as inappropriate
Those who bought this album when it came out were either unrepentant hippies or nostalgic for a time soon gone. CSN (Y) had huge hits and all went off to do whatever they thought would be their own ...gift. Steven Stills had a contract and got... read full review | report as inappropriate

First of all, don't be fooled by the "live" recordings that the back cover shows: they are no prev. unreleased material, they're songs from the "Live from New York City, 1967" CD (Sony, 2002).So why would Sony release yet another Greatest hits... read full review | report as inappropriate
Simon & Garfunkel are one of my all time favorite groups. They rank right up there with Zeppelin, Dylan, The Beatles, The Who, the Stones, Queen and all my other favorite musicians. I loved my very first S & G cd, "The Best Of Simon &... read full review | report as inappropriate
